4 0

Answer: 123 g

Explanation: Q =It = nzF. For Ca^2+ z= 2, t = 5.5 x 3600 s and I = 30.0

And F= 96485 As/mol

Amount of moles is n = It /zF = 3.078 mol , multiply with atomic mass 40.08 g/mol

What is the charge associated with each side of the HCl molecule?

Alexandra [31]

HCl is a polar molecule with the hydrogen part being partial positive while the chlorine end being partial negative. This is because hydrogen has an electronegativity of 2.1, and chlorine has an electronegativity of 3.0. This means that chlorine attracted most of the electron cloud of molecule hence is the negative dipole, The dipole moment of HCl is 1.08 D (debyes). A Debye is equal to 3.34 x 10-30 coulomb-meters (C-m). The charge of each molecule is o.176+ for H and 0.176- for the Cl

PLEASE ANSWER CORRECTLY AND ONLY IF U KNOW! IS IT A B C OR D?!

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are three states of mater; solid liquid and gas. The sold state is the difficult to compress while the gaseous state is quite easy to compress.

A gas is easily compressed because the particles in a gas are far apart from each other. A solid is difficult to compress because the particles of a solid are close together. From all the above statements, it is easily deducible that the compressibility property of a substance in a particular state of matter depends on the proximity of the particles to each other, hence the answer above.

Answer:

The functional groups

Explanation:

An organic compound is a compound that contain carbon and another element such as hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, etc.
Functional groups are the portions of an organic compound that is capable of characteristic reactions.
Functional groups determine the chemical and physical properties of many organic compounds.

A solution that is 0.20 m in hcho2 and 0.15 m in nacho2 find ph

Mashutka [201]

We are given
0.2 M HCHO2 which is formic acid, a weak acid
and
0.15 M NaCHO2 which is a salt which can be formed by reacting HCHO2 and NaOH

The mixture of the two results to a basic buffer solution
To get the pH of a base buffer, we use the formula
pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - (pKa - log [salt]/[base])

We need the pKa of HCO2
From, literature, pKa = 1.77 x 10^-4
Substituting into the equation
pH = 14 - (1.77 x 10^-4 - log 0.15/0.2)
pH = 13.87

So, the pH of the buffer solution is 13.87
A pH of greater than 7 indicates that the solution is basic and a pH close to 14 indicates high alkalinity. This is due to the buffering effect of the salt on the base.
